1
00:00:28,695 --> 00:00:29,929
Saint Bay, do you copy?

2
00:00:30,497 --> 00:00:31,531
Come in, Saint Bay.

3
00:00:31,998 --> 00:00:33,566
Argo to Saint Bay station.

4
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,269
Argo to Saint Bay station.
Come in, Saint Bay.

5
00:00:36,703 --> 00:00:38,772
This is Saint Bay station. Come in, Argo.

6
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:41,740
This is Kai Li Cain
from the Wayne expedition.

7
00:00:41,341 --> 00:00:42,942
We've found the Cobblepot base camp...

8
00:00:43,343 --> 00:00:44,944
or what's left of it.

9
00:00:45,345 --> 00:00:47,781
Mr. Wayne is with Grayson and Tawde
looking for survivors.

10
00:01:00,260 --> 00:01:02,228
Dick, Sanjay, report.

11
00:01:02,962 --> 00:01:05,265
It's bad, sir. Nothing but dead bodies.

12
00:01:05,732 --> 00:01:07,434
Yeah. Heaps of 'em.

13
00:01:07,767 --> 00:01:09,302
We found the ship's manifest, sir.

14
00:01:09,502 --> 00:01:11,404
We're still two short.
Someone named Grendon,

15
00:01:11,738 --> 00:01:12,939
and then Cobblepot himself.

16
00:01:14,874 --> 00:01:16,376
Not to go grummy, Mr. Wayne,

17
00:01:16,443 --> 00:01:18,812
but the odds of anyone
surviving out here...

18
00:01:21,781 --> 00:01:22,816
We keep looking.

19
00:01:38,565 --> 00:01:39,899
Professor Cobblepot's journal?

20
00:01:41,301 --> 00:01:42,769
"Expedition day three.

21
00:01:43,269 --> 00:01:44,270
Men are on edge.

22
00:01:45,710 --> 00:01:46,673
The dogs will still not leave the ship.

23
00:01:48,141 --> 00:01:49,142
It's this place.

24
00:01:50,577 --> 00:01:51,478
They fear it.

25
00:01:52,946 --> 00:01:54,114
And I must confess...

26
00:01:55,115 --> 00:01:56,349
I don't blame them.

27
00:01:57,450 --> 00:01:58,318
Day seven...

28
00:01:59,152 --> 00:02:00,200
Things are worse.

29
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,522
Could not calm the dogs.

30
00:02:03,289 --> 00:02:04,491
Forced to kill them all.

31
00:02:05,158 --> 00:02:06,459
Grendon has disappeared.

32
00:02:07,427 --> 00:02:08,928
Has gone mad, I fear.

33
00:02:09,596 --> 00:02:11,664
And the others, they won't speak.

34
00:02:12,766 --> 00:02:14,134
They refuse to even move.

35
00:02:14,968 --> 00:02:16,936
Day ten, just me now.

36
00:02:19,390 --> 00:02:20,473
When I close my eyes...

37
00:02:21,641 --> 00:02:22,976
I hear it calling.

38
00:02:23,543 --> 00:02:24,511
From the ice. "

39
00:02:26,446 --> 00:02:27,280
Cobblepot?

40
00:02:29,482 --> 00:02:31,618
Professor Cobblepot! Oswald!

41
00:02:41,940 --> 00:02:42,295
"It tells me...

42
00:02:44,197 --> 00:02:46,533
I have come home. "

43
00:03:15,762 --> 00:03:16,730
Cobblepot?

44
00:03:17,897 --> 00:03:19,499
Cobblepot is no more.

45
00:03:20,934 --> 00:03:22,268
He's something else now.

46
00:03:23,770 --> 00:03:26,673
He's become
what he was always meant to be.

47
00:03:28,608 --> 00:03:30,276
I take it you're Grendon.

48
00:03:31,444 --> 00:03:34,280
Was Grendon. Once.

49
00:03:35,582 --> 00:03:37,517
Now I'm chosen by him

50
00:03:37,817 --> 00:03:39,953
to be his messenger to the world.

51
00:03:40,954 --> 00:03:43,990
I see. And who is "him", exactly?

52
00:03:44,958 --> 00:03:50,130
Him is he who bays and slavers
forever outside time and space,

53
00:03:50,497 --> 00:03:52,832
who shambled down out of the stars

54
00:03:52,932 --> 00:03:57,871
when Earth new and spawned abominations
in the seas and blights upon the land.

55
00:03:58,438 --> 00:04:01,441
Woe to man when he comes again.

56
00:04:07,814 --> 00:04:11,284
To gaze upon his form
is to invite madness.

57
00:04:12,452 --> 00:04:15,522
That is why, in order to serve him,
I chose to make...

58
00:04:16,523 --> 00:04:17,957
adjustments.

59
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:21,227
You're gonna come with me.

60
00:04:21,528 --> 00:04:22,462
Now!

61
00:04:22,696 --> 00:04:23,997
No. No!

62
00:04:24,564 --> 00:04:26,199
I'm not finished yet.

63
00:05:49,649 --> 00:05:50,617
Hark...

64
00:05:51,484 --> 00:05:53,286
The lurker is on the threshold.

65
00:05:54,587 --> 00:05:55,622
And behold...

66
00:05:56,589 --> 00:05:57,424
It...

67
00:05:57,724 --> 00:05:58,558
Is...

68
00:05:59,225 --> 00:06:00,160
Coming.

69
00:06:22,649 --> 00:06:24,170
Shore party to Argo.

70
00:06:27,354 --> 00:06:28,621
This is Argo. Go ahead.

71
00:06:28,955 --> 00:06:31,124
Kai Li, ready the explosives.

72
00:06:31,324 --> 00:06:34,427
Did you say explosives?

73
00:06:34,828 --> 00:06:36,863
I mean, sure, Mr. Wayne. How many?

74
00:06:37,197 --> 00:06:38,131
All of them.

75
00:06:51,711 --> 00:06:54,514
Hot dog!

76
00:06:55,181 --> 00:06:57,684
Nothing'll get into or out of that cave
ever again.

77
00:06:58,885 --> 00:07:00,320
You sure sealing it off was wise?

78
00:07:01,287 --> 00:07:04,124
The scientific value of a prehistoric
creature like the one you described-

79
00:07:04,190 --> 00:07:06,192
Is far less than the danger it posed.

80
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,796
That thing has infected
the surrounding wildlife here

81
00:07:09,863 --> 00:07:11,464
with some sort of mutational agent.

82
00:07:12,699 --> 00:07:15,680
A virus that must've lain dormant
for millennia.

83
00:07:16,136 --> 00:07:17,137
And it's quite possible,

84
00:07:17,303 --> 00:07:19,339
it infected some of
the Cobblepot party as well.

85
00:07:22,409 --> 00:07:24,878
So, whatever that creature was, Dick,

86
00:07:25,145 --> 00:07:26,513
it was meant to stay buried.

87
00:07:31,251 --> 00:07:32,686
Sir, what about Cobblepot?

88
00:07:33,860 --> 00:07:34,870
Did you ever find him?

89
00:07:37,230 --> 00:07:38,191
Cobblepot's gone.

90
00:08:05,452 --> 00:08:08,455
Heavens, what is that ghastly smell?

91
00:08:08,588 --> 00:08:10,457
That would be your friend, Grendon.

92
00:08:10,757 --> 00:08:13,927
Once we warmed him up,
he started to spoil.

93
00:08:14,270 --> 00:08:15,195
Spoil?

94
00:08:15,295 --> 00:08:17,197
The old palooka's dead as a donkey.

95
00:08:17,931 --> 00:08:18,765
Right, Dicky?

96
00:08:19,299 --> 00:08:21,368
The tissue samples I took from him
appear to be dead,

97
00:08:21,434 --> 00:08:23,870
- but I'm sure there's a logical-
- Logical explanation.

98
00:08:24,804 --> 00:08:27,874
You know, ace, you're starting to sound
more like the big cheese every day.

99
00:08:28,441 --> 00:08:32,912
May I ask where this rather loquacious
cadaver is, presently?

100
00:08:32,979 --> 00:08:35,382
Until Dick can whip up something
to keep the body frozen,

101
00:08:35,815 --> 00:08:37,384
Mr. Wayne had us put him on ice.

102
00:08:39,285 --> 00:08:42,455
He instructed me to put Mr. Grendon
in the meat freezer, Alfred.

103
00:08:46,590 --> 00:08:49,462
I do so look forward to fetching
this evening's roast.

104
00:09:00,674 --> 00:09:01,975
"Though I am strayed,

105
00:09:03,900 --> 00:09:05,278
my Testament shall remain in Gotham.

106
00:09:06,179 --> 00:09:07,914
Forever in my keep. "

107
00:09:10,830 --> 00:09:13,286
Master Bruce, about this Grendon.

108
00:09:13,420 --> 00:09:16,220
- Perhaps it's time for another-
- Gotham is in danger.

109
00:09:17,230 --> 00:09:19,250
You gleaned that
from Cobblepot's journal, sir?

110
00:09:19,325 --> 00:09:20,360
I'm sure of it now.

111
00:09:20,927 --> 00:09:22,195
But from what you told me,

112
00:09:22,295 --> 00:09:24,130
the professor was not of sound mind.

113
00:09:24,497 --> 00:09:27,100
Believe me, Alfred,
I took that into consideration.

114
00:09:27,167 --> 00:09:31,104
Unhinged rantings aside, his journal
confirms much of what I've uncovered

115
00:09:31,171 --> 00:09:32,839
about the existence of an ancient cult.

116
00:09:32,939 --> 00:09:34,974
And if any of what he writes is true,

117
00:09:35,410 --> 00:09:37,944
it's a cult that has long ties to Gotham.

118
00:09:38,778 --> 00:09:40,680
Then should I take this to mean...

119
00:09:41,681 --> 00:09:43,616
It's been 20 years since we left, Alfred.

120
00:09:44,284 --> 00:09:46,119
Twenty years preparing.

121
00:09:46,686 --> 00:09:47,520
And now...

122
00:09:48,154 --> 00:09:48,988
It's time.

123
00:10:02,135 --> 00:10:03,169
We're going home.

124
00:10:13,346 --> 00:10:15,215
How long you figure we'll be in Gotham?

125
00:10:16,149 --> 00:10:17,417
We're here for good, kid.

126
00:10:17,517 --> 00:10:18,852
Horsefeathers!

127
00:10:18,918 --> 00:10:20,487
In the two years I've been with you

128
00:10:20,553 --> 00:10:23,223
we haven't stayed in any city
for more than a few weeks.

129
00:10:23,990 --> 00:10:24,891
Come to think of it...

130
00:10:25,358 --> 00:10:27,827
I've never stayed in any city
for more than a few weeks.

131
00:10:27,994 --> 00:10:30,430
I've been traveling with Bruce
coming on a decade now, Kai Li.

132
00:10:30,764 --> 00:10:32,665
And it's always been about returning
to Gotham.

133
00:10:32,866 --> 00:10:35,201
Okay, but returning for what?

134
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:44,411
Doom.

135
00:10:45,211 --> 00:10:47,614
You return for your doom.

136
00:10:49,883 --> 00:10:51,384
Nuts to you, ya rank spud.

137
00:10:58,391 --> 00:11:00,627
It appears Gotham has become a bit more...

138
00:11:01,528 --> 00:11:03,463
Untended than we remember it.

139
00:11:04,230 --> 00:11:06,533
Let's hope
it's nothing like I remember it, Alfred.

140
00:11:10,136 --> 00:11:12,605
Gotham's history
is our history, son.

141
00:11:12,939 --> 00:11:14,407
Wayne family history.

142
00:11:15,241 --> 00:11:17,410
The Waynes built this city, Bruce.

143
00:11:17,777 --> 00:11:20,413
That makes you part of a long legacy.

144
00:11:21,147 --> 00:11:22,480
What's a legacy?

145
00:11:23,490 --> 00:11:27,420
It means, one day,
you'll have very big shoes to fill.

146
00:11:28,788 --> 00:11:30,560
Come now, Martha.

147
00:11:30,156 --> 00:11:33,159
It's more important a man learn
to stand on his own feet

148
00:11:33,293 --> 00:11:35,762
before cramming them
into someone else's shoes.

149
00:11:37,630 --> 00:11:38,131
Isn't that right, son?

150
00:11:39,766 --> 00:11:43,300
We have brought this curse upon us!

151
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:46,940
Thomas!

152
00:11:52,178 --> 00:11:54,247
Bruce, run! Just-

153
00:12:37,991 --> 00:12:39,192
Grendon's secure, sir.

154
00:12:39,492 --> 00:12:40,860
You sure you want us
to just leave him here?

155
00:12:41,361 --> 00:12:42,195
For now.

156
00:12:42,962 --> 00:12:44,798
If he was exposed to that virus...

157
00:12:45,665 --> 00:12:48,735
I don't trust the Gotham Police
to use the same precautions we have.

158
00:12:48,968 --> 00:12:49,803
Understood.

159
00:12:50,337 --> 00:12:52,739
But I'll need one of you to stay back
and keep an eye on him.

160
00:13:02,315 --> 00:13:03,550
Tough luck, Sanjay.

161
00:13:03,917 --> 00:13:04,751
Damn it.

162
00:13:06,986 --> 00:13:08,210
Aye aye, Cap.

163
00:13:08,555 --> 00:13:09,389
And why not?

164
00:13:09,489 --> 00:13:13,193
After months at sea, what's a few
more days on this fine vessel?

165
00:13:13,426 --> 00:13:16,960
It'll give me a chance to cozy up
with the nutso diseased corpse.

166
00:13:16,763 --> 00:13:19,566
Hear that? Just you and me now, Mr. Zero.

167
00:13:57,370 --> 00:13:58,204
Lucius.

168
00:13:59,272 --> 00:14:00,306
So good to see you.

169
00:14:00,774 --> 00:14:01,908
You as well, son.

170
00:14:02,242 --> 00:14:04,444
Nice work, Alfred.
You brought him home in one piece.

171
00:14:04,711 --> 00:14:07,800
Not for his lack of trying, old friend.

172
00:14:09,820 --> 00:14:10,383
How's business, Lucius?

173
00:14:10,650 --> 00:14:11,484
Copacetic.

174
00:14:12,152 --> 00:14:13,319
So long as the board believes

175
00:14:13,420 --> 00:14:16,222
all executive directives
are coming from you, that is.

176
00:14:16,790 --> 00:14:17,624
For some reason,

177
00:14:17,724 --> 00:14:20,593
they just don't seem quite comfortable
taking orders from me.

178
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,795
Well then,

179
00:14:21,895 --> 00:14:25,432
I guess you'll just have to continue
making sure that all my directives are...

180
00:14:25,932 --> 00:14:26,766
Copacetic.

181
00:14:27,767 --> 00:14:29,736
I plan to.

182
00:14:30,700 --> 00:14:32,238
And you received my last consignment?

183
00:14:32,505 --> 00:14:34,307
Like all your shipments over the years,

184
00:14:34,407 --> 00:14:36,176
I had everything
situated in the wine cellar

185
00:14:36,309 --> 00:14:38,144
to your precise specifications.

186
00:14:38,945 --> 00:14:40,280
Thank you, Lucius.

187
00:14:43,249 --> 00:14:44,840
One thing...

188
00:14:44,351 --> 00:14:45,318
Wine cellar?

189
00:14:45,785 --> 00:14:47,870
Let's not romanticize it.

190
00:14:47,854 --> 00:14:48,822
It's a cave.

191
00:14:51,257 --> 00:14:54,260
Wow.

192
00:14:55,428 --> 00:14:57,497
Swanky.

193
00:15:00,266 --> 00:15:01,267
Master Bruce,

194
00:15:01,768 --> 00:15:04,400
it appears word of your return
has spread, sir.

195
00:15:04,504 --> 00:15:06,873
Oliver Queen has invited you
for dinner and drinks.

196
00:15:07,540 --> 00:15:10,110
I shall assume
he intends an emphasis on the latter.

197
00:15:11,845 --> 00:15:12,812
Master Bruce?

198
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,448
Something isn't right.

199
00:15:27,727 --> 00:15:28,795
Claw marks?

200
00:15:28,895 --> 00:15:30,163
It's some sort of animal attack.

201
00:15:30,697 --> 00:15:31,865
- A bear, maybe?
- No.

202
00:15:32,699 --> 00:15:34,401
The wounds are made bottom up.

203
00:15:34,734 --> 00:15:37,470
Ursine claws are incapable
of that kind of movement.

204
00:15:37,904 --> 00:15:38,738
This bruise...

205
00:15:38,905 --> 00:15:41,541
- Strangulation.
- Means whatever did this had thumbs.

206
00:15:41,975 --> 00:15:44,440
Obviously, he was killed elsewhere
and brought here.

207
00:15:44,411 --> 00:15:45,245
But why?

208
00:15:48,982 --> 00:15:49,816
I am...

209
00:15:50,717 --> 00:15:51,651
Langstrom.

210
00:15:53,253 --> 00:15:54,870
Bruce, what is it?

211
00:15:56,890 --> 00:15:57,724
Did you...

212
00:15:58,258 --> 00:16:00,193
Nevermind.

213
00:16:00,527 --> 00:16:01,728
Should we notify the police?

214
00:16:02,162 --> 00:16:02,996
Yes.

215
00:16:03,396 --> 00:16:04,531
But, not yet.

216
00:16:05,932 --> 00:16:06,766
I'll handle it.

217
00:16:13,873 --> 00:16:15,942
Are you sure
you're up for dinner, sir?

218
00:16:16,276 --> 00:16:18,445
This house
has been sealed for 20 years

219
00:16:18,578 --> 00:16:21,681
and the corpse downstairs
isn't doing the fustiness any favors.

220
00:16:22,615 --> 00:16:24,617
At the very least,
we could stand the fresh air.

221
00:16:25,118 --> 00:16:28,555
Besides, I haven't seen
Oliver since we ran into each other in...

222
00:16:31,424 --> 00:16:32,392
Dushanbe.

223
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:36,429
My name is Blood.

224
00:16:36,763 --> 00:16:39,299
You do not want to know me or what I am.

225
00:16:43,536 --> 00:16:44,704
Suffice it to say,

226
00:16:44,971 --> 00:16:47,307
what is invisible to most
is visible to me.

227
00:16:48,375 --> 00:16:49,242
Is that so?

228
00:16:49,309 --> 00:16:51,244
June 26th, 1908.

229
00:16:51,478 --> 00:16:53,146
You witnessed your parents' murder.

230
00:16:53,279 --> 00:16:55,448
In the ensuing years,
you set upon the world,

231
00:16:55,615 --> 00:16:59,285
absorbing all forms of criminology,
psychology, martial art...

232
00:16:59,652 --> 00:17:03,923
Whatever skills you deemed necessary
to one day avenge your parents' deaths

233
00:17:04,224 --> 00:17:05,825
and become this city's savior.

234
00:17:06,393 --> 00:17:07,293
The Bat.

235
00:17:07,827 --> 00:17:10,130
Do you have a point, Mr. Blood?

236
00:17:10,263 --> 00:17:13,666
Your homecoming has set certain wheels
in motion, Bruce Wayne.

237
00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:15,168
And though I know much,

238
00:17:15,568 --> 00:17:18,805
I'm only allowed
to tell you these things three.

239
00:17:19,272 --> 00:17:20,106
One.

240
00:17:20,173 --> 00:17:22,475
You must seek out two spirits.

241
00:17:24,477 --> 00:17:25,445
Spirits?

242
00:17:25,779 --> 00:17:28,481
One wrapped in bats, the other in flames.

243
00:17:29,115 --> 00:17:29,949
Two.

244
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,352
To prevail in this, Bruce Wayne must die

245
00:17:32,452 --> 00:17:34,621
and through death become himself.

246
00:17:35,522 --> 00:17:36,456
Three.

247
00:17:37,900 --> 00:17:38,491
Before it can be saved,

248
00:17:38,925 --> 00:17:39,759
Gotham...

249
00:17:39,826 --> 00:17:41,995
must be burned to the ground.

250
00:17:43,596 --> 00:17:45,965
Listen, I'm not sure what your game is,

251
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:47,634
but I'm not big on ghost stories.

252
00:17:47,934 --> 00:17:50,603
Your dubiety will be your undoing.

253
00:17:53,673 --> 00:17:55,475
You wanna talk undoing?

254
00:18:01,114 --> 00:18:05,510
You'll find no enemy here,
my thickheaded friend.

255
00:18:05,151 --> 00:18:08,540
Rest assured when you face your foe,

256
00:18:08,154 --> 00:18:10,457
you'll see me again.

257
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:16,996
I've readied the car for...

258
00:18:25,572 --> 00:18:26,539
dinner.

259
00:18:30,510 --> 00:18:35,482
And then Bruce says to the man,
"Sorry constable, it was dog fur. "

260
00:18:41,855 --> 00:18:44,900
That's not quite how it went, Ollie.

261
00:18:44,524 --> 00:18:46,726
Oh, come on, Brucey, you gotta embellish.

262
00:18:46,826 --> 00:18:48,862
It's called showmanship. Right, Kelley?

263
00:18:50,196 --> 00:18:51,431
It's Kai Li.

264
00:18:51,698 --> 00:18:52,565
Attagirl.

265
00:18:53,500 --> 00:18:57,237
Oh. I hear you ran into one
of Gotham's finest down south.

266
00:18:59,706 --> 00:19:00,940
Easy, fellas.

267
00:19:01,410 --> 00:19:05,211
Old Cobblepot was mad as a march hare
well before his expedition.

268
00:19:06,713 --> 00:19:09,382
So, Mr. Queen,
I notice you're into hunting.

269
00:19:09,849 --> 00:19:12,686
It's a passion that's taken me
around the world.

270
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:18,725
Not a matter of flora nor fauna alive,
that can best Oliver Queen.

271
00:19:19,250 --> 00:19:21,594
You do know flora are plants, right?

272
00:19:23,290 --> 00:19:23,963
Of course.

273
00:19:24,531 --> 00:19:26,599
And I stand by my assertion.

274
00:19:26,900 --> 00:19:28,368
For what plant could-

275
00:19:30,570 --> 00:19:32,739
Oh, bully! My surprise guest.

276
00:19:33,306 --> 00:19:35,408
One of Bruce and my oldest chums

277
00:19:35,575 --> 00:19:40,580
and the man who will single-handedly
clean the fetid streets of our lost city,

278
00:19:40,747 --> 00:19:43,817
I give you Gotham's future mayor,
Harvey Dent.

279
00:19:44,217 --> 00:19:45,752
Let's not count chickens, Ollie.

280
00:19:45,819 --> 00:19:47,587
Election's not for four days and...

281
00:19:50,156 --> 00:19:51,825
I'll be...

282
00:19:52,225 --> 00:19:53,293
Bruce Wayne.

283
00:19:53,626 --> 00:19:54,661
Look at you, kid.

284
00:19:54,894 --> 00:19:57,163
Good to see you, Harvey.
It's been too long.

285
00:19:58,980 --> 00:20:00,734
And look at us three. Together again.

286
00:20:03,670 --> 00:20:04,504
So...

287
00:20:04,738 --> 00:20:05,905
You gonna offer me a drink,

288
00:20:06,439 --> 00:20:07,340
or not?

289
00:20:16,916 --> 00:20:17,917
Wayne residence.

290
00:20:19,753 --> 00:20:21,321
Mr. Wayne is out for the evening.

291
00:20:21,855 --> 00:20:23,289
Is there a message I could-

292
00:20:25,291 --> 00:20:29,295
So then, Harv,
I look this dewdropper square in his eyes.

293
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:32,532
And I say, "Sorry constable,

294
00:20:34,701 --> 00:20:36,436
it was duck fur. "

295
00:20:43,476 --> 00:20:44,611
Tell me something, Harv.

296
00:20:45,378 --> 00:20:47,814
Does the name "Langstrom"
mean anything to you?

297
00:20:48,214 --> 00:20:49,449
Professor Kirk Langstrom?

298
00:20:49,816 --> 00:20:51,785
The Batman of crime alley?

299
00:20:53,219 --> 00:20:55,210
He's loonier than Cobblepot.

300
00:20:55,989 --> 00:20:56,890
Come to think of it,

301
00:20:57,691 --> 00:21:00,326
there has been an uptick
in crackpots lately,

302
00:21:00,393 --> 00:21:02,195
which is saying something.

303
00:21:03,290 --> 00:21:06,399
Gotham's always had more
than our fair share of wingnuts.

304
00:21:07,330 --> 00:21:09,200
Langstrom is a biologist
at the university.

305
00:21:09,302 --> 00:21:10,670
A chiropterologist, actually.

306
00:21:10,870 --> 00:21:13,540
Of late,
he's rather infamously developed an

307
00:21:13,873 --> 00:21:17,177
unhealthy obsession with the bats
he studies.

308
00:21:17,410 --> 00:21:18,578
Unhealthy how?

309
00:21:18,812 --> 00:21:20,800
He claims to be one.

310
00:21:24,551 --> 00:21:26,186
Would you have an address for him?

311
00:21:26,653 --> 00:21:29,220
Somewhere in Robin's Row.
I'll call the office.

312
00:21:30,990 --> 00:21:32,692
Speaking of the office, gentlemen,

313
00:21:33,326 --> 00:21:35,161
I have to report to it in six hours.

314
00:21:36,396 --> 00:21:39,432
You'll have to show me how to do
that coin trick next time, Mr. Dent.

315
00:21:39,833 --> 00:21:40,667
Sorry, sport.

316
00:21:46,390 --> 00:21:47,173
Magicians don't spill.

317
00:21:50,377 --> 00:21:51,745
We'd best retire as well.

318
00:21:53,130 --> 00:21:54,681
Say, Ollie...

319
00:21:55,448 --> 00:21:57,550
Since Alfred's still airing out the house,

320
00:21:57,917 --> 00:21:59,586
would you mind putting us up
for the night?

321
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,122
Mind? I'll ring for more sherry.

322
00:22:05,692 --> 00:22:06,693
Keep an eye on Oliver.

323
00:22:13,366 --> 00:22:15,568
I'm beginning to think
Sanjay drew the lucky straw.

324
00:22:18,538 --> 00:22:20,373
First, I thought I failed.

325
00:22:21,374 --> 00:22:26,579
But I feel the power of his cold gift
inside me.

326
00:22:27,881 --> 00:22:28,882
Shut your yap-

327
00:22:36,389 --> 00:22:38,558
Just dummy up, would ya?

328
00:22:40,930 --> 00:22:41,261
Everybody!

329
00:22:42,295 --> 00:22:44,230
Ida

330
00:22:44,431 --> 00:22:47,901
Sweet as apple cider

331
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,305
Sweeter than all I know

332
00:22:52,772 --> 00:22:54,700
Come out

333
00:22:54,574 --> 00:22:58,178
In the silvery moonlight...

334
00:22:58,678 --> 00:23:00,800
Where's Bruce?

335
00:23:00,347 --> 00:23:02,849
If he's smart, back in Antarctica.

336
00:23:02,949 --> 00:23:05,285
Low, low, low, low, low

337
00:23:06,190 --> 00:23:07,870
Everybody!

338
00:23:34,147 --> 00:23:35,949
Landlady said
it sounded like a murder.

339
00:23:36,483 --> 00:23:37,650
I don't see no bodies.

340
00:23:37,951 --> 00:23:39,452
You look for bodies, junior.

341
00:23:39,853 --> 00:23:41,154
Screwballs like Langstrom,

342
00:23:41,554 --> 00:23:43,623
always keep some dough squirreled away.

343
00:23:43,823 --> 00:23:46,326
Hurry up and find it, will ya?
Before Gordon gets back-

344
00:23:46,659 --> 00:23:47,694
Jumped up jimminy!

345
00:23:50,196 --> 00:23:52,499
Find what you were looking for?

346
00:23:53,133 --> 00:23:54,534
Ventilate this son of a *****.

347
00:24:20,427 --> 00:24:21,528
Langstrom...

348
00:24:22,362 --> 00:24:23,930
The hell were you into?

349
00:24:47,287 --> 00:24:50,390
Okay, boys. Let's wrap the-

350
00:24:52,225 --> 00:24:53,226
What the...

351
00:24:59,466 --> 00:25:00,300
Wayne residence.

352
00:25:02,769 --> 00:25:05,305
As I've stated thrice already,
Ms. Barbara,

353
00:25:05,605 --> 00:25:07,240
Mr. Wayne is out for the evening.

354
00:25:07,607 --> 00:25:09,242
Now, I will certainly deliver-

355
00:25:11,911 --> 00:25:13,460
"If you're reading this,

356
00:25:13,713 --> 00:25:16,783
I, Dr. Kirk Langstrom, am dead.

357
00:25:17,550 --> 00:25:18,385
Thankfully.

358
00:25:18,818 --> 00:25:23,560
For a great doom is coming to this world.

359
00:25:24,457 --> 00:25:28,261
Though you will think me mad,
believe me, if you can.

360
00:25:28,828 --> 00:25:31,398
The bats speak to me.

361
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:37,804
They see beyond what man dare fathom.

362
00:25:39,500 --> 00:25:40,440
And they tell me

363
00:25:40,907 --> 00:25:43,276
of a growing horror.

364
00:25:43,643 --> 00:25:48,982
A thing, crouching,
at the doorstep of our reality.

365
00:25:49,349 --> 00:25:51,618
And it is hungry for us.

366
00:25:52,180 --> 00:25:55,855
And it wants our world.

367
00:25:57,424 --> 00:26:02,529
For centuries, acolytes of this evil,
the 'Cult of Ghul'

368
00:26:03,129 --> 00:26:09,602
have endeavored to unlock the very door
that keeps the thing from our reality.

369
00:26:10,136 --> 00:26:12,605
And now, their time

370
00:26:13,540 --> 00:26:14,674
is nigh.

371
00:26:15,975 --> 00:26:19,612
Yet, there is still a single hope.

372
00:26:20,113 --> 00:26:21,815
They require a book,

373
00:26:21,881 --> 00:26:24,170
The Testament of Ghul.

374
00:26:24,217 --> 00:26:27,487
For only with the knowledge
contained in its pages

375
00:26:27,654 --> 00:26:30,490
may they open that door.

376
00:26:32,225 --> 00:26:38,640
The Testament must be kept from them,
at all costs. "

377
00:26:40,533 --> 00:26:41,701
Testament.

378
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:44,804
"My Testament shall remain in Gotham.

379
00:26:46,390 --> 00:26:47,574
Forever in my keep. "

380
00:26:48,708 --> 00:26:49,909
Cobblepot had it.

381
00:27:17,737 --> 00:27:20,340
University repository.
Professor Manfurd speaking.

382
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,510
Do you have keep
of Professor Cobblepot's records?

383
00:27:23,610 --> 00:27:25,745
While he's on sabbatical, yes.
Who is this, please?

384
00:27:26,120 --> 00:27:27,914
The Testament of Ghul...

385
00:27:28,615 --> 00:27:30,116
I need it.

386
00:27:30,583 --> 00:27:31,418
Testament of...

387
00:27:32,118 --> 00:27:34,220
No, I am not familiar with such a text.

388
00:27:34,587 --> 00:27:36,723
Of course,
this is not a lending library, sir.

389
00:27:36,790 --> 00:27:38,358
This is the university repository

390
00:27:38,591 --> 00:27:40,126
restricted to the public, if you-

391
00:28:04,551 --> 00:28:06,753
Cobblepot ordered me to destroy you.

392
00:28:08,288 --> 00:28:10,490
Oh, but even if I could, I would not.

393
00:28:10,590 --> 00:28:14,461
I, for one, am so very glad at that.

394
00:28:15,395 --> 00:28:17,731
Talia? But how?

395
00:28:17,897 --> 00:28:19,132
You know who I am.

396
00:28:19,599 --> 00:28:20,433
Good.

397
00:28:21,134 --> 00:28:22,969
Please, don't kill me!

398
00:28:23,903 --> 00:28:26,720
We'll leave that business to...

399
00:28:27,907 --> 00:28:28,908
Daitya.

400
00:28:30,677 --> 00:28:31,511
No!

401
00:28:44,758 --> 00:28:46,860
The Testament. Now!

402
00:28:47,861 --> 00:28:49,696
No.

403
00:28:50,163 --> 00:28:51,631
Do as you will, Daitya.

404
00:28:55,969 --> 00:28:56,870
What the...

405
00:30:14,748 --> 00:30:15,949
Etrigan.

406
00:30:16,750 --> 00:30:19,586
You were told you know not what you face.

407
00:30:19,686 --> 00:30:23,890
Yet only you can stop it,
so leave this place.

408
00:30:27,293 --> 00:30:30,897
My sacrifice is made
so you might end this curse.

409
00:30:30,964 --> 00:30:35,468
Alas, it'd be for naught
should the book remain hers!

410
00:30:47,447 --> 00:30:48,648
Let's try this again.

411
00:30:52,118 --> 00:30:54,120
The book. Now.

412
00:30:54,988 --> 00:30:58,224
Do not think your costume
can frighten me, Bat.

413
00:30:58,458 --> 00:31:03,496
I am well acquainted with real matter
of demon, Djinn and devil.

414
00:31:03,897 --> 00:31:08,101
Whatever the Cult of Ghul is planning,
it ends here.

415
00:31:08,568 --> 00:31:11,237
The Cult of Ghul perished centuries ago.

416
00:31:11,304 --> 00:31:12,672
I am its last...

417
00:31:12,972 --> 00:31:13,807
For now.

418
00:31:18,111 --> 00:31:20,780
After leaving you that surprise
in your study,

419
00:31:21,348 --> 00:31:23,450
I was certain, you'd realize

420
00:31:23,516 --> 00:31:25,352
I was not one to be trifled with.

421
00:31:26,519 --> 00:31:28,621
You knew I'd lead you to The Testament.

422
00:31:28,988 --> 00:31:31,291
You killed Langstrom.

423
00:31:31,491 --> 00:31:34,928
You have no clue
the power this book possesses.

424
00:31:34,994 --> 00:31:39,933
I know those who seek it
mean to do this city harm.

425
00:31:40,533 --> 00:31:42,200
Quite the contrary.

426
00:31:42,302 --> 00:31:47,400
We mean to give this city purpose
and honor the damnation which bore it.

427
00:31:47,307 --> 00:31:48,942
You, on the other hand,

428
00:31:49,900 --> 00:31:50,877
we mean to do harm.

429
00:31:56,449 --> 00:31:57,550
It can't be.

430
00:31:57,851 --> 00:31:59,452
Another monster.

431
00:32:13,633 --> 00:32:15,835
You don't go 812 years

432
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:19,139
without making your share
of interesting friends.

433
00:33:16,930 --> 00:33:18,398
The bat still lives.

434
00:33:19,990 --> 00:33:20,800
No matter.

435
00:33:21,301 --> 00:33:23,870
He poses no serious threat to us.

436
00:33:25,380 --> 00:33:27,874
Besides, you are needed
for another errand.

437
00:33:28,308 --> 00:33:30,543
The key has been delivered to the harbor.

438
00:33:31,478 --> 00:33:32,412
Retrieve it.

439
00:33:43,556 --> 00:33:45,125
To think, in our letters to each other,

440
00:33:45,225 --> 00:33:49,396
I used to rib Bruce for collecting
a stray ragamuffin at every port.

441
00:33:50,597 --> 00:33:51,664
But you two...

442
00:33:52,298 --> 00:33:54,501
You two are on the level.

443
00:33:55,235 --> 00:33:59,500
Of course, you can do no better
than Bruce Wayne.

444
00:34:02,275 --> 00:34:03,109
Bruce.

445
00:34:04,277 --> 00:34:05,412
I owe the man.

446
00:34:09,249 --> 00:34:12,352
Lord, I owe him
more than he could possibly know.

447
00:34:13,153 --> 00:34:14,954
I'm so sorry, Brucey...

448
00:34:15,855 --> 00:34:17,991
So sorry.

449
00:34:19,159 --> 00:34:20,326
All right, easy there.

450
00:34:20,527 --> 00:34:22,950
I'm sure everything is fine, sir.

451
00:34:23,496 --> 00:34:25,965
Mr. Wayne isn't one to hold a grudge
against a good man.

452
00:34:26,332 --> 00:34:27,934
Come on, let's get some sleep.

453
00:34:28,535 --> 00:34:30,937
Am I though? A good man?

454
00:34:34,700 --> 00:34:35,108
Never forget,

455
00:34:36,900 --> 00:34:39,112
the sins of the father
are heaped upon the son.

456
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,390
Thanks, Mr. Queen. Good to know.

457
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,300
Alfred.

458
00:35:03,536 --> 00:35:04,504
Master Bruce.

459
00:35:04,838 --> 00:35:05,705
What's happened?

460
00:35:05,805 --> 00:35:07,640
Not sure. Yet.

461
00:35:08,410 --> 00:35:09,576
Is that sulfur?

462
00:35:10,844 --> 00:35:12,312
You're wounded. I have to clean-

463
00:35:12,379 --> 00:35:15,482
Not yet. I have to analyze this substance.

464
00:35:15,915 --> 00:35:18,385
For when I run into
the mutated creature again.

465
00:35:19,190 --> 00:35:20,220
Mutated creature?

466
00:35:20,387 --> 00:35:21,821
Wait, where are you off to?

467
00:35:22,389 --> 00:35:24,524
The cave. We have work to do.

468
00:35:25,925 --> 00:35:27,894
It's a wine cellar, Master Bruce.

469
00:35:28,395 --> 00:35:29,662
We're not Neanderthals

470
00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:34,334
Boys...

471
00:35:35,268 --> 00:35:36,603
It is still June, isn't it?

472
00:35:43,443 --> 00:35:45,445
Hold up, kid. Ship's off limits.

473
00:35:46,179 --> 00:35:47,130
Heya, boys.

474
00:35:47,681 --> 00:35:49,249
Oliver Queen.

475
00:35:49,416 --> 00:35:50,684
What are you doing here?

476
00:35:51,217 --> 00:35:54,754
Expecting another dozen cases
of your bootleg hooch, are we?

477
00:35:55,210 --> 00:35:56,423
And flout the prohibition laws

478
00:35:56,523 --> 00:36:00,460
that help keep Gotham the fine
and chaste city we've all come to love?

479
00:36:01,610 --> 00:36:02,962
Why, Jimmy Gordon, you slay me!

480
00:36:03,797 --> 00:36:04,764
Tell you what though,

481
00:36:04,964 --> 00:36:08,368
if I do happen upon a case,
I'll let you watch me polish it off.

482
00:36:08,702 --> 00:36:10,136
At least then, you and your boys can see

483
00:36:10,236 --> 00:36:12,439
what getting to the bottom
of a case actually looks like.

484
00:36:13,730 --> 00:36:15,475
Get off it, Queen! Now listen, son...

485
00:36:20,914 --> 00:36:21,915
Go, go!

486
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:47,730
Sanjay?

487
00:36:48,641 --> 00:36:49,642
Sanjay?

488
00:36:52,779 --> 00:36:54,247
Jay?

489
00:36:58,151 --> 00:36:58,985
Sanjay...

490
00:37:13,666 --> 00:37:15,802
I'd wise up if I were you, Jimmy.

491
00:37:15,969 --> 00:37:17,337
The election's in three days.

492
00:37:17,704 --> 00:37:21,441
If all goes pepper, my best chum,
Harvey Dent, will be your boss.

493
00:37:21,841 --> 00:37:22,842
Think about the future-

494
00:37:31,785 --> 00:37:32,619
Mercy.

495
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:45,832
Come on. Let me through.

496
00:37:46,533 --> 00:37:47,901
Chief wants us to keep you-

497
00:38:00,914 --> 00:38:01,881
No!

498
00:38:01,981 --> 00:38:03,983
- No! No, it's okay!
- No!

499
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:05,585
- No!
- It's okay.

500
00:38:05,685 --> 00:38:08,154
No! No!

501
00:38:09,689 --> 00:38:11,891
I've got you. I've got you. I know.

502
00:38:12,192 --> 00:38:14,394
I know. I know, let it out.

503
00:38:15,161 --> 00:38:16,363
It's okay, let it out.

504
00:38:19,766 --> 00:38:21,434
What did this?

505
00:38:23,570 --> 00:38:24,738
I don't know, Kai Li.

506
00:38:25,872 --> 00:38:27,440
But by the Lord's hand...

507
00:38:29,342 --> 00:38:30,944
they will pay.

508
00:38:33,580 --> 00:38:34,848
Millennia ago,

509
00:38:35,849 --> 00:38:40,253
you descended upon these wicked grounds
to learn secrets unholy.

510
00:38:41,888 --> 00:38:47,260
Now, I shall use those very secrets
to give you life again.

511
00:38:47,694 --> 00:38:52,899
Then, together, we will usher
log-Sotha into this reality!

512
00:38:55,702 --> 00:38:56,569
Daitya!

513
00:38:57,370 --> 00:38:58,605
You come in good time.

514
00:38:59,606 --> 00:39:01,241
Etrigan...

515
00:39:01,574 --> 00:39:02,575
Indeed.

516
00:39:03,410 --> 00:39:07,781
I furnished a demon to take your place
in your bottle prison, Djinn.

517
00:39:08,381 --> 00:39:13,420
Now, you must honor your end
of our bargain before returning to Hell.

518
00:39:14,540 --> 00:39:17,824
Scorch this cursed ground
with your wretched hellfire.

519
00:39:49,220 --> 00:39:50,123
Come forth!

520
00:40:04,371 --> 00:40:06,106
My daughter...

521
00:40:08,475 --> 00:40:09,509
He has risen.

522
00:40:11,311 --> 00:40:13,646
Ra's al Ghul has risen!

523
00:40:26,726 --> 00:40:29,620
There are miles
of tunnel below this city.

524
00:40:30,530 --> 00:40:32,365
Talia is down here somewhere.

525
00:40:33,633 --> 00:40:35,301
The book you requested, sir.

526
00:40:37,671 --> 00:40:41,574
I would certainly never count myself
among the "believers", Master Bruce.

527
00:40:42,750 --> 00:40:47,180
But I have seen enough in my time
to at least be wary of the dark arts.

528
00:40:47,247 --> 00:40:50,183
I appreciate the concern,
but we don't have time for superstitions.

529
00:40:50,583 --> 00:40:51,484
I only mean,

530
00:40:51,751 --> 00:40:55,689
perhaps it would be wise
to not discount such things out of hand.

531
00:40:55,755 --> 00:40:58,892
I'll admit a lot of what I've seen
seems to defy logic.

532
00:40:59,426 --> 00:41:00,260
But I assure you

533
00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,929
there's a rational explanation
behind all of it.

534
00:41:03,663 --> 00:41:04,497
What's this?

535
00:41:04,931 --> 00:41:06,933
"The mausoleum of the serpent?"

536
00:41:07,500 --> 00:41:09,436
"Before humans, there were serpents.

537
00:41:10,700 --> 00:41:12,238
Masters of an ancient black magic.

538
00:41:13,730 --> 00:41:18,411
In what would be 2000 BC,
a dark priest, Ra's al Ghul,

539
00:41:18,511 --> 00:41:21,810
uncovered the ruins
of their unholy grounds.

540
00:41:21,448 --> 00:41:24,851
Using necromantic arts,
he wrested their secrets from them...

541
00:41:25,552 --> 00:41:28,288
The nature of the cosmos was his to wield.

542
00:41:29,189 --> 00:41:32,692
Yet, Ra's' one true desire
was to serve his master...

543
00:41:33,626 --> 00:41:35,128
log-Sotha.

544
00:41:35,895 --> 00:41:40,200
And to bring his dark
outer God into our reality. "

545
00:41:42,135 --> 00:41:43,236
Outer gods?

546
00:41:43,603 --> 00:41:45,710
All myth, Alfred.

547
00:41:45,372 --> 00:41:47,400
Then of what use is this to us?

548
00:41:47,374 --> 00:41:49,409
If you look
at any myth hard enough,

549
00:41:49,476 --> 00:41:51,478
you'll find the remnants
of fact underneath.

550
00:41:54,914 --> 00:41:55,949
Aklo.

551
00:41:56,950 --> 00:41:58,840
I'm sorry, sir...

552
00:41:58,618 --> 00:41:59,753
Aklo?

553
00:41:59,819 --> 00:42:01,254
The tick marks in that etching.

554
00:42:01,755 --> 00:42:03,823
It's an ancient system of writing...

555
00:42:03,923 --> 00:42:04,924
Aklo.

556
00:42:05,580 --> 00:42:06,590
They're not ticks.

557
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:07,927
They're coordinates.

558
00:42:08,294 --> 00:42:09,129
Facts.

559
00:42:09,963 --> 00:42:10,964
Is it possible?

560
00:42:11,731 --> 00:42:14,768
This mausoleum is located
somewhere beneath Gotham?

561
00:42:14,934 --> 00:42:16,690
I'm going to find out.

562
00:42:16,903 --> 00:42:18,571
Check to see if our compound is ready.

563
00:42:23,276 --> 00:42:28,915
For a million, million years,
log-Sotha has longed for this planet.

564
00:42:29,315 --> 00:42:33,787
He howls and scrapes
at a door he can never open.

565
00:42:34,821 --> 00:42:39,659
Now, we shall descend
into the unholy chamber of the serpents

566
00:42:40,260 --> 00:42:43,830
and invoke the ceremony
that will show us this door.

567
00:42:50,470 --> 00:42:53,373
You can't open a door
without a key.

568
00:43:03,483 --> 00:43:05,518
Oh, heavens, not again.

569
00:43:08,221 --> 00:43:11,358
Wayne residence and I assure you,
Mr. Wayne is still...

570
00:43:12,559 --> 00:43:15,295
Oh. Chief Gordon. My apologies, sir.

571
00:43:15,395 --> 00:43:16,463
I thought it was your...

572
00:43:16,730 --> 00:43:18,531
I thought it was a wrong number.

573
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:21,634
My Lord...

574
00:43:23,236 --> 00:43:24,404
Yes, of course.

575
00:43:24,904 --> 00:43:27,841
If Mr. Queen could look after Kai Li
for the time being,

576
00:43:29,142 --> 00:43:30,744
it would be most appreciated.

577
00:43:31,177 --> 00:43:33,790
And the moment he returns, I...

578
00:43:34,140 --> 00:43:35,548
I shall inform Mr. Wayne.

579
00:43:40,754 --> 00:43:42,355
O thou Gog,

580
00:43:45,225 --> 00:43:46,559
O thou Gog,

581
00:43:51,898 --> 00:43:56,236
O Kore... O Persephone...

582
00:43:57,337 --> 00:44:01,207
O Amaga, log-Sotha,

583
00:44:01,741 --> 00:44:04,210
Darkness out of time,

584
00:44:04,944 --> 00:44:06,413
show us your door

585
00:44:06,746 --> 00:44:08,281
so that we may partake

586
00:44:09,150 --> 00:44:12,686
in this holy purpose and finally-

587
00:44:20,593 --> 00:44:23,229
What manner of insolent worm is this?

588
00:44:23,530 --> 00:44:25,565
Continue the incantation, Father.

589
00:44:26,266 --> 00:44:29,369
We will deal with the interloper.

590
00:44:59,650 --> 00:45:00,567
You destroyed him.

591
00:45:01,267 --> 00:45:03,103
What magic is this?

592
00:45:03,770 --> 00:45:04,838
Not magic.

593
00:45:05,438 --> 00:45:07,273
Chlorine concentrate.

594
00:45:07,974 --> 00:45:08,975
Very well.

595
00:45:15,810 --> 00:45:18,151
My, you are a quick study.

596
00:45:18,685 --> 00:45:21,354
I suppose
I'll have to dispose of you intimately.

597
00:45:48,148 --> 00:45:49,849
Etrigan...

598
00:45:54,287 --> 00:45:56,289
That's enough, Ra's.

599
00:45:56,990 --> 00:46:00,160
Whoever you really are
and whatever your game is,

600
00:46:01,610 --> 00:46:02,128
it's over.

601
00:46:05,398 --> 00:46:06,232
Indeed,

602
00:46:07,330 --> 00:46:08,301
it is over...

603
00:46:12,305 --> 00:46:13,640
Over for you.

604
00:46:16,643 --> 00:46:18,478
The ritual is complete.

605
00:46:26,152 --> 00:46:28,888
Reptiles once
ruled this earth.

606
00:46:28,988 --> 00:46:33,226
And now, they return with a plague
that will lead us to the door.

607
00:46:34,494 --> 00:46:36,620
To log-Sotha!

608
00:47:10,797 --> 00:47:12,966
Extra, extra! Gotham knee-deep in lizards!

609
00:47:16,603 --> 00:47:18,710
Thank you. Thank you.

610
00:47:19,272 --> 00:47:22,776
When elected, this infestation
will be my first priority.

611
00:47:23,309 --> 00:47:27,447
I refuse to let this be another scar
on the face of our proud, beautiful city.

612
00:47:27,547 --> 00:47:28,581
Yes, Harvey!

613
00:47:28,648 --> 00:47:30,383
I say enough!

614
00:48:13,793 --> 00:48:16,196
The thing is coming.

615
00:48:16,696 --> 00:48:19,833
Today we will only show you...

616
00:48:19,933 --> 00:48:22,535
Show you the shape of the thing.

617
00:48:23,300 --> 00:48:24,637
For to gaze upon it

618
00:48:25,138 --> 00:48:27,140
is to invite madness!

619
00:48:29,275 --> 00:48:33,179
And though your mind may force itself
to forget what it sees,

620
00:48:34,140 --> 00:48:37,283
the mark of madness it leaves behind

621
00:48:37,684 --> 00:48:40,720
is yours for eternity.

622
00:48:41,154 --> 00:48:44,891
The only thing that can stop it
is the Bat.

623
00:48:45,725 --> 00:48:48,294
The only thing that can stop it...

624
00:48:51,310 --> 00:48:52,799
...is you!

625
00:48:53,366 --> 00:48:55,869
I... remember.

626
00:49:11,885 --> 00:49:12,719
Father?

627
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,396
And this just in, it's official,

628
00:49:23,596 --> 00:49:25,331
Harvey Dent is our next mayor!

629
00:49:25,498 --> 00:49:29,369
And in light of the sudden and miraculous
disappearance of the still-inexplicable

630
00:49:29,436 --> 00:49:33,239
reptile infestation, one has to believe
that his victory is a sign

631
00:49:33,340 --> 00:49:37,277
that Harvey Dent is, indeed,
our city's gateway to hope.

632
00:49:37,377 --> 00:49:38,778
We've endured so much together.

633
00:49:38,878 --> 00:49:42,115
As Mayor, I promise
this will be a shining new era for Gotham.

634
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:45,919
log-Sotha has spoken.

635
00:49:46,553 --> 00:49:48,880
Dent is the door.

636
00:49:48,621 --> 00:49:51,558
Then all that remains
is to retrieve the key.

637
00:49:53,293 --> 00:49:57,697
- Masters, I told you. I know of no key.
- Imbecile.

638
00:49:58,198 --> 00:50:02,602
You found Yib Nogeroth,
son of log-Sotha, in the ice.

639
00:50:03,690 --> 00:50:06,773
Though he sleeps,
he carried out his father's will...

640
00:50:07,907 --> 00:50:10,877
and planted his seed in you.

641
00:50:12,379 --> 00:50:14,981
Of course, the gift within me.

642
00:50:15,448 --> 00:50:16,816
This is the key!

643
00:50:17,417 --> 00:50:18,918
Tell me, how may I give-

644
00:50:43,109 --> 00:50:44,644
log-Sotha,

645
00:50:45,445 --> 00:50:48,281
make this gift a new vessel.

646
00:50:49,182 --> 00:50:51,317
The agent of your delivery.

647
00:50:53,119 --> 00:50:54,154
Dent.

648
00:50:58,658 --> 00:50:59,659
Doom...

649
00:51:01,428 --> 00:51:02,429
Doom...

650
00:51:03,797 --> 00:51:07,367
The great doom is coming.
It's at the doorstep.

651
00:51:08,501 --> 00:51:10,203
He hasn't moved from this spot,

652
00:51:10,704 --> 00:51:12,972
nor so much as spoken to me
since I found him.

653
00:51:13,106 --> 00:51:15,809
Not even after you told him
about misters Tawde and Grayson?

654
00:51:16,643 --> 00:51:18,445
Particularly after, I'm afraid.

655
00:51:18,511 --> 00:51:19,346
Alfred,

656
00:51:19,779 --> 00:51:20,814
it's time to call Hugo.

657
00:51:21,348 --> 00:51:22,682
The staff at Arkham can help.

658
00:51:51,511 --> 00:51:53,130
Congrats, Mr. Mayor!

659
00:51:53,413 --> 00:51:55,815
Thanks, Pete. But I only just got the job.

660
00:51:56,416 --> 00:51:58,251
Now, time to see if I can deliver.

661
00:51:58,351 --> 00:51:59,719
I'm sure you will.

662
00:52:00,186 --> 00:52:02,880
The people have every faith in you.

663
00:52:02,756 --> 00:52:04,524
Thank you, ma'am.

664
00:52:07,660 --> 00:52:08,762
I won't let you down.

665
00:52:29,749 --> 00:52:33,620
You know, kiddo, I had three
locks put on that door for a reason.

666
00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:35,889
Sorry, I guess curiosity.

667
00:52:37,891 --> 00:52:38,892
What the...

668
00:52:40,293 --> 00:52:42,280
Mr. Queen?

669
00:52:42,295 --> 00:52:43,596
What is all this?

670
00:52:43,930 --> 00:52:47,701
Very soon,
a great evil will befall Gotham.

671
00:52:48,134 --> 00:52:49,769
It's up to me to defeat it.

672
00:52:51,638 --> 00:52:52,906
I see.

673
00:52:53,373 --> 00:52:54,974
And, how's that?

674
00:52:55,709 --> 00:52:56,776
Have you forgotten?

675
00:52:57,210 --> 00:53:00,146
"The sins of the Father
are heaped upon the son. "

676
00:53:01,114 --> 00:53:04,317
No man is guilty
of more sin than my father.

677
00:53:05,919 --> 00:53:11,558
As impossible as it seems,
Henry Queen was over 300 years old.

678
00:53:12,459 --> 00:53:16,960
As it goes,
the cur made a pact with the devil.

679
00:53:17,163 --> 00:53:19,399
Over time it drove him mad.

680
00:53:20,333 --> 00:53:21,401
By the end,

681
00:53:21,835 --> 00:53:25,338
there was no vile deed
the wretched ******* would refuse.

682
00:53:26,139 --> 00:53:28,508
Including the cold-blooded murder

683
00:53:29,109 --> 00:53:31,110
of Thomas and Martha Wayne.

684
00:53:32,479 --> 00:53:36,583
He told me of this unholy act
perpetrated centuries ago.

685
00:53:37,183 --> 00:53:42,355
An act so wicked, so foul,
it stirred this thing

686
00:53:42,455 --> 00:53:44,491
that would one day destroy Gotham.

687
00:53:45,959 --> 00:53:50,697
So, in turn, I vowed to undo
each of those sins.

688
00:53:50,864 --> 00:53:54,834
I set about preparing to face
this impending doom he warned of.

689
00:53:55,201 --> 00:53:57,470
Testing myself against deadly beasts.

690
00:53:57,871 --> 00:54:00,400
Collecting all manner of holy weapons.

691
00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:02,208
Like these four arrows.

692
00:54:02,709 --> 00:54:06,312
Stained with the very blood
of St. Sebastian himself.

693
00:54:08,148 --> 00:54:10,316
Listen, Mr. Queen, sir-

694
00:54:10,817 --> 00:54:11,651
You should go.

695
00:54:12,552 --> 00:54:14,220
This thing knows who I am.

696
00:54:15,121 --> 00:54:16,790
Surely, it will come for me.

697
00:54:17,657 --> 00:54:19,192
Though I've enjoyed your company,

698
00:54:19,693 --> 00:54:21,728
it's best you not be here when it does.

699
00:54:31,471 --> 00:54:32,305
The door...

700
00:54:33,673 --> 00:54:36,676
The doorway to our reality. Where?

701
00:54:36,743 --> 00:54:39,312
How is it you do not yet realize?

702
00:54:39,579 --> 00:54:41,414
Though you once feared them,

703
00:54:42,150 --> 00:54:45,251
only the bats know the way to salvation.

704
00:54:46,860 --> 00:54:48,922
You must accept as I have.

705
00:54:49,589 --> 00:54:51,257
Only they will tell-

706
00:54:51,424 --> 00:54:52,258
Damn it!

707
00:54:53,260 --> 00:54:54,227
We're running out of time!

708
00:54:54,761 --> 00:54:57,530
Why don't you tell me what the bats say!

709
00:54:58,331 --> 00:55:00,667
You said they speak to you, right?

710
00:55:01,340 --> 00:55:02,268
They surround you.

711
00:55:03,603 --> 00:55:04,437
You...

712
00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,420
The spirit wrapped in bats.

713
00:55:09,609 --> 00:55:10,577
Mr. Wayne.

714
00:55:11,211 --> 00:55:12,946
It's Oliver. I think he's...

715
00:55:15,115 --> 00:55:16,383
Lost his mind.

716
00:55:17,851 --> 00:55:20,920
Alfred told me to leave you alone,
because you weren't well. But...

717
00:55:24,391 --> 00:55:27,270
Golly, did he hold out cheap.

718
00:55:28,428 --> 00:55:31,598
Listen, sir. I don't understand
what's going on,

719
00:55:32,980 --> 00:55:33,566
but I can tell it's bad.

720
00:55:34,134 --> 00:55:34,968
Real bad.

721
00:55:35,635 --> 00:55:36,936
And whatever it is...

722
00:55:37,871 --> 00:55:39,806
Dick and Sanjay...

723
00:55:40,807 --> 00:55:42,308
Now, something's wrong with Oliver.

724
00:55:42,709 --> 00:55:45,745
He's dressed as a knight and going on
and on about a "doom" that is coming.

725
00:55:48,982 --> 00:55:50,583
Poison ivy, Mayor Dent.

726
00:55:50,750 --> 00:55:52,485
Oh. Come now.

727
00:55:52,752 --> 00:55:54,888
I haven't been out of the city in months,
Dr. West.

728
00:55:55,588 --> 00:55:57,390
Well, then, it's stress.

729
00:55:57,824 --> 00:55:59,959
You have had a demanding week, Harv.

730
00:56:00,927 --> 00:56:03,329
Now, find some time to relax. And...

731
00:56:03,997 --> 00:56:06,599
For Pete's sake, man! Don't scratch it!

732
00:56:06,833 --> 00:56:07,934
It'll just get infected.

733
00:56:08,735 --> 00:56:09,569
Here.

734
00:56:10,700 --> 00:56:11,104
Use this.

735
00:56:16,776 --> 00:56:21,181
Lord, grant me the strength
to destroy the thing that is coming.

736
00:56:28,688 --> 00:56:30,690
Oh. Hello.

737
00:56:33,626 --> 00:56:36,290
Why, we were just talking about you.

738
00:56:44,337 --> 00:56:46,600
Thank goodness!

739
00:56:46,373 --> 00:56:49,142
If I'd killed you that easily,
there'd have been no sport.

740
00:57:38,258 --> 00:57:39,920
Bruce?

741
00:57:40,260 --> 00:57:41,261
Nice outfit.

742
00:57:42,696 --> 00:57:43,530
You, too.

743
00:57:44,431 --> 00:57:45,432
Showmanship.

744
00:57:50,337 --> 00:57:51,705
You look awful.

745
00:57:53,707 --> 00:57:54,541
Easy, kid.

746
00:57:55,750 --> 00:57:56,343
At this point,

747
00:57:56,609 --> 00:57:58,745
they're all that's holding me together.

748
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:01,348
But good news...

749
00:58:05,552 --> 00:58:09,289
And without using
any of St. Sebastian's arrows.

750
00:58:11,910 --> 00:58:13,193
Told you no fauna could best me.

751
00:58:17,230 --> 00:58:18,640
Kai Li.

752
00:58:19,650 --> 00:58:19,966
Give us a minute.

753
00:58:29,476 --> 00:58:31,440
I thought I could stop it, Bruce.

754
00:58:31,111 --> 00:58:33,446
This thing...

755
00:58:33,546 --> 00:58:36,282
Thought I was ready,
but nothing could prepare-

756
00:58:36,383 --> 00:58:39,919
I know, Oliver. More than you realize.

757
00:58:42,589 --> 00:58:43,423
Bruce...

758
00:58:46,393 --> 00:58:48,228
Something I must confess...

759
00:58:49,562 --> 00:58:51,331
It's weighed on me for years.

760
00:58:51,931 --> 00:58:55,135
Old friend, my father...

761
00:58:57,671 --> 00:59:00,240
I'm so sorry, Bruce, my father, he-

762
00:59:00,507 --> 00:59:02,809
Did what he did.

763
00:59:03,943 --> 00:59:08,581
You did nothing but live as a good man.

764
00:59:09,949 --> 00:59:11,251
That's all that matters.

765
00:59:11,351 --> 00:59:13,119
I hope you're right, Brucey...

766
00:59:14,788 --> 00:59:16,189
For both our sake.

767
00:59:16,923 --> 00:59:19,826
The bloodline can never escape the stain.

768
00:59:20,794 --> 00:59:23,960
The sins of the father.

769
01:00:04,704 --> 01:00:06,973
Whoever you are, please,

770
01:00:08,241 --> 01:00:09,676
kill me.

771
01:00:10,510 --> 01:00:12,479
Do not despair.

772
01:00:13,179 --> 01:00:14,647
The end is near.

773
01:00:16,490 --> 01:00:18,718
But you have a little more to do.

774
01:00:31,831 --> 01:00:33,433
It's not your fault, Mr. Wayne.

775
01:00:34,868 --> 01:00:38,238
Talking dead folks, reptile plagues,
plant monsters, it's not...

776
01:00:39,439 --> 01:00:40,407
natural.

777
01:00:44,911 --> 01:00:46,913
No one could have seen this coming.

778
01:00:47,113 --> 01:00:48,448
I should have.

779
01:00:49,820 --> 01:00:50,750
The signs were there.

780
01:00:51,751 --> 01:00:53,860
I refused to heed them,

781
01:00:53,186 --> 01:00:56,523
because they didn't align
with what I deemed to be rational.

782
01:00:57,557 --> 01:01:01,761
- This thing, it is coming?
- Soon.

783
01:01:02,362 --> 01:01:03,697
And I don't know how.

784
01:01:03,897 --> 01:01:05,565
But only I can stop it.

785
01:01:06,866 --> 01:01:09,536
With all due respect, sir,
Oliver said the same thing.

786
01:01:09,869 --> 01:01:11,204
And now he's dead.

787
01:01:11,271 --> 01:01:13,239
He died trying to do what was right.

788
01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:17,143
He died because he thought he owed
the world for whatever insanity his dad-

789
01:01:17,277 --> 01:01:21,147
- Oliver believed the sins of the father-
- Are heaped upon the son.

790
01:01:21,581 --> 01:01:23,116
Yeah. I know that verse.

791
01:01:23,416 --> 01:01:25,452
But don't forget Ezekiel 18,

792
01:01:25,552 --> 01:01:27,320
"The son will not share
the guilt of the father,

793
01:01:27,420 --> 01:01:29,255
nor will the father share
the guilt of the son. "

794
01:01:29,656 --> 01:01:32,392
My point is, you don't have to do this.

795
01:01:33,930 --> 01:01:35,950
You can leave. We can leave.

796
01:01:35,295 --> 01:01:37,497
Get a new ship and go anywhere else.

797
01:01:38,331 --> 01:01:40,400
You don't owe this city anything.

798
01:01:41,501 --> 01:01:44,604
Most people, if they see a house on fire,

799
01:01:44,938 --> 01:01:48,740
would run and call for help
once they're out of harm's way.

800
01:01:48,675 --> 01:01:51,444
While others, very few others,

801
01:01:52,112 --> 01:01:53,446
would run right into that house

802
01:01:53,513 --> 01:01:55,749
and try to save those
who are trapped inside.

803
01:01:57,250 --> 01:01:58,985
The moment I found you,

804
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:04,858
my every instinct told me
which one of those two people you were.

805
01:02:07,594 --> 01:02:09,529
Doom or not, Kai Li,

806
01:02:10,430 --> 01:02:12,465
Gotham is a city on fire.

807
01:02:13,366 --> 01:02:17,203
It needs those who are willing
to run into the inferno.

808
01:02:19,706 --> 01:02:22,175
Bruce Wayne, there you are.

809
01:02:22,976 --> 01:02:24,778
Was there something you wanted, Jim?

810
01:02:25,278 --> 01:02:26,680
No.

811
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:28,682
Yes, actually.

812
01:02:29,215 --> 01:02:32,485
First, deeply sorry about your boys.
My condolences.

813
01:02:33,186 --> 01:02:34,954
I assure you my best men are on the...

814
01:02:36,389 --> 01:02:38,858
I'm here on behalf of my daughter.

815
01:02:39,225 --> 01:02:40,600
Barbara?

816
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:41,961
She said she's been trying to reach you.

817
01:02:42,395 --> 01:02:43,730
I'm sure you've heard about her-

818
01:02:43,863 --> 01:02:46,166
Accident a few years back? Yes.

819
01:02:46,633 --> 01:02:48,735
Poor thing. She hasn't been the same.

820
01:02:48,968 --> 01:02:50,503
Wait a minute. Barbara?

821
01:02:50,670 --> 01:02:52,839
Barbara Gordon? The Oracle, right?

822
01:02:52,906 --> 01:02:54,674
I read about her in Spiritualism Monthly!

823
01:02:54,741 --> 01:02:59,245
Yes, I suppose Barbara has
developed something of a...

824
01:03:00,180 --> 01:03:02,820
reputation in certain circles.

825
01:03:02,182 --> 01:03:04,217
And she says she needs to speak to me?

826
01:03:04,818 --> 01:03:06,553
Not her, exactly.

827
01:03:07,187 --> 01:03:08,688
- One of her-
- Ghosts.

828
01:03:10,523 --> 01:03:11,891
She said you'd know who.

829
01:03:13,159 --> 01:03:13,993
Do you?

830
01:03:14,594 --> 01:03:15,762
I don't.

831
01:03:15,862 --> 01:03:19,566
Bruce, I realize it's an unusual request.
But it seemed...

832
01:03:20,567 --> 01:03:22,669
so very urgent to my Barbara,
and it would...

833
01:03:23,937 --> 01:03:26,873
- It would mean a lot to me.
- Tell her I'll see her tonight.

834
01:03:27,407 --> 01:03:30,944
- Okay. But visiting hours are-
- Tonight!

835
01:03:39,953 --> 01:03:42,689
Do you think the Oracle will know
how to stop this thing?

836
01:03:42,922 --> 01:03:43,923
Not the Oracle,

837
01:03:44,557 --> 01:03:46,893
but the spirit wrapped in flames.

838
01:03:48,962 --> 01:03:50,363
It's time.

839
01:04:07,113 --> 01:04:08,715
I can't let you leave.

840
01:04:08,915 --> 01:04:10,450
That's not your decision.

841
01:04:11,384 --> 01:04:14,387
You're not well. What's happening to you?

842
01:04:15,388 --> 01:04:17,223
What needs to happen.

843
01:04:17,757 --> 01:04:20,794
I can't pretend to know
exactly what I'm about to face.

844
01:04:22,228 --> 01:04:25,298
But I do know that I must face it.

845
01:04:26,232 --> 01:04:29,469
This is what I was meant to do.

846
01:04:30,170 --> 01:04:32,105
- Bruce-
- Please, Alfred.

847
01:04:34,607 --> 01:04:36,242
I haven't much time.

848
01:04:39,913 --> 01:04:41,481
Very well then, Master Bruce.

849
01:04:42,682 --> 01:04:45,118
If time is of the essence, as you say...

850
01:04:49,890 --> 01:04:51,491
May I suggest taking the car?

851
01:04:59,466 --> 01:05:01,868
You're in charge of the wine cellar now.

852
01:05:03,269 --> 01:05:04,938
You're not coming back?

853
01:05:18,485 --> 01:05:20,286
Goodbye...

854
01:05:20,353 --> 01:05:21,521
Son.

855
01:05:22,555 --> 01:05:25,250
Goodbye, Alfred.

856
01:05:56,656 --> 01:05:59,920
I'm glad you accepted my invitation.

857
01:05:59,192 --> 01:06:01,528
Although, I suppose, it should concern me

858
01:06:01,594 --> 01:06:04,970
you're able to break into this place
so easily.

859
01:06:05,650 --> 01:06:06,660
No offense,

860
01:06:06,566 --> 01:06:09,235
but I'd say the greater concern
would be Arkham's ability

861
01:06:09,335 --> 01:06:11,104
to keep those from breaking out.

862
01:06:11,571 --> 01:06:14,700
Oh, it's not so bad in here, Bruce.

863
01:06:14,341 --> 01:06:16,609
Three squares. Good company.

864
01:06:16,776 --> 01:06:20,714
A complete absence of unnecessary pity
from loved ones.

865
01:06:22,820 --> 01:06:24,250
Besides, if you saw as I do,

866
01:06:24,517 --> 01:06:28,621
you'd take the insanity within these walls
over the true madness out there.

867
01:06:29,522 --> 01:06:31,570
Perhaps you're right.

868
01:06:31,791 --> 01:06:33,927
So, a bat? 

869
01:06:36,620 --> 01:06:37,964
Interesting creatures, aren't they?

870
01:06:38,531 --> 01:06:42,435
Funny how one little winged rodent
can mean so many different things

871
01:06:42,535 --> 01:06:44,471
to so many different people.

872
01:06:45,705 --> 01:06:46,539
If you ask me,

873
01:06:46,606 --> 01:06:49,776
it's all about their uncanny ability
to maneuver in the dark.

874
01:06:50,543 --> 01:06:54,247
Like they embody a perception
of the things that can't be seen.

875
01:06:55,648 --> 01:06:56,983
So, let me ask you.

876
01:06:57,484 --> 01:06:59,252
What do they mean to you, Bruce?

877
01:06:59,652 --> 01:07:00,920
Why a bat?

878
01:07:01,221 --> 01:07:06,590
Bats inspire fear,
and criminals are superstitious and-

879
01:07:06,126 --> 01:07:07,794
Cowardly lot, sure.

880
01:07:08,161 --> 01:07:10,960
I figured that's what you'd say.

881
01:07:10,463 --> 01:07:12,232
But is that really why?

882
01:07:13,733 --> 01:07:15,602
Well, something to think about, I guess.

883
01:07:15,769 --> 01:07:19,500
Okay then, down to business
and the reason you've come.

884
01:07:19,506 --> 01:07:21,274
Do you know with whom you need to speak?

885
01:07:21,508 --> 01:07:24,944
I wish to speak to the spirit
wrapped in flames.

886
01:07:25,845 --> 01:07:28,114
But you don't know who this spirit is?

887
01:07:29,249 --> 01:07:31,117
Only that it burns in hell.

888
01:07:32,786 --> 01:07:34,921
And you're sure you want to do this?

889
01:07:34,988 --> 01:07:37,924
It's not a question of want, Barbara.

890
01:07:44,864 --> 01:07:48,435
Spirit we seek, I surrender myself.

891
01:07:49,369 --> 01:07:52,972
Body and soul, come to us now.

892
01:07:53,373 --> 01:07:55,375
Come to us now.

893
01:07:55,508 --> 01:07:58,440
Come to us now!

894
01:08:03,616 --> 01:08:04,984
Father?

895
01:08:05,985 --> 01:08:07,187
It can't be.

896
01:08:09,550 --> 01:08:10,490
Hello, Bruce.

897
01:08:10,990 --> 01:08:12,250
What is this?

898
01:08:12,325 --> 01:08:13,526
It's me, son.

899
01:08:14,127 --> 01:08:16,796
And I am so, so sorry.

900
01:08:17,364 --> 01:08:20,633
Believe me, I wanted to tell you this
when you were old enough.

901
01:08:20,834 --> 01:08:21,968
But not like this.

902
01:08:22,502 --> 01:08:23,636
Not here.

903
01:08:24,237 --> 01:08:25,305
Tell me what?

904
01:08:25,839 --> 01:08:30,176
I, Thomas Wayne, was born in 1585

905
01:08:30,243 --> 01:08:33,913
and was among the first colonists
to venture to the new world.

906
01:08:34,547 --> 01:08:38,852
I and others founded the settlement
that would one day become Gotham.

907
01:08:40,420 --> 01:08:44,240
Lo, but those first years
were unforgiving.

908
01:08:44,891 --> 01:08:48,661
The land penurious.
The winters, harsh, indeed.

909
01:08:50,630 --> 01:08:51,364
We were dying.

910
01:08:53,199 --> 01:08:59,439
Until, one among us, Oswald Cobblepot
discovered what was buried

911
01:08:59,539 --> 01:09:01,341
under the earth beneath our land.

912
01:09:02,676 --> 01:09:06,279
Myself, Bartly Langstrom, and Henry Queen

913
01:09:06,379 --> 01:09:09,516
followed Cobblepot into an ungodly place.

914
01:09:11,685 --> 01:09:15,121
He showed us the ancient book
he'd found there.

915
01:09:16,623 --> 01:09:19,192
A book steeped in malevolence.

916
01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:26,660
Call it despair, call it desperation,
call it, perhaps, even greed,

917
01:09:26,633 --> 01:09:29,235
but we four read from this book

918
01:09:29,402 --> 01:09:32,439
and performed its ceremonies most vile.

919
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,210
Shame of which would last eons.

920
01:09:37,777 --> 01:09:39,913
But, alas, our settlement had been saved.

921
01:09:40,914 --> 01:09:42,282
Flourished, even.

922
01:09:42,716 --> 01:09:46,653
And not only did the four of us
prosper beyond our wildest dreams,

923
01:09:47,487 --> 01:09:51,157
we'd been gifted apparent life eternal.

924
01:09:51,658 --> 01:09:54,761
In time, it was nearly as if
we'd forgotten the events

925
01:09:54,828 --> 01:09:57,931
of that despicable night ever occurred.

926
01:09:58,898 --> 01:10:00,500
It, however, did not forget us.

927
01:10:01,234 --> 01:10:02,502
For centuries later,

928
01:10:03,690 --> 01:10:09,142
we would learn that the malevolence
we bore that fateful night awoke him.

929
01:10:09,476 --> 01:10:10,643
log Sotha.

930
01:10:11,770 --> 01:10:12,412
It was our wretchedness

931
01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:15,749
that drew the thing
to the threshold of our reality.

932
01:10:16,750 --> 01:10:17,584
You...

933
01:10:18,518 --> 01:10:19,819
called him forth.

934
01:10:20,860 --> 01:10:22,522
Knowing what we'd done, truly done,

935
01:10:22,989 --> 01:10:25,658
drove Bartly Langstrom to suicide,

936
01:10:26,493 --> 01:10:29,262
Oswald Cobblepot to the ends of the earth,

937
01:10:29,596 --> 01:10:31,310
and Henry Queen to...

938
01:10:34,601 --> 01:10:40,507
Well, worst yet, the curse lays the burden
of undoing our misdeeds

939
01:10:40,607 --> 01:10:42,275
upon our children.

940
01:10:42,475 --> 01:10:45,445
The sins of the father
are heaped upon the son.

941
01:10:46,713 --> 01:10:47,847
Yes.

942
01:10:48,682 --> 01:10:53,190
That's why Kirk Langstrom
and Oliver both-

943
01:10:53,119 --> 01:10:54,621
But it's not too late, son.

944
01:10:55,188 --> 01:10:57,190
You can stop this thing.

945
01:10:57,357 --> 01:10:59,826
log Sotha has not yet entered our realm.

946
01:11:00,126 --> 01:11:03,290
You must find the door
before it fully opens.

947
01:11:03,196 --> 01:11:04,330
How?

948
01:11:04,731 --> 01:11:06,700
By becoming what you truly are.

949
01:11:07,167 --> 01:11:08,635
In coming to see me,

950
01:11:08,968 --> 01:11:12,872
you've accepted a world
beyond reason and science.

951
01:11:13,573 --> 01:11:15,800
But you must embrace it.

952
01:11:15,709 --> 01:11:17,811
You must seek communion...

953
01:11:18,378 --> 01:11:19,913
With them.

954
01:11:23,249 --> 01:11:24,484
The bats.

955
01:11:30,690 --> 01:11:32,592
Thank you, Barbara.

956
01:11:33,827 --> 01:11:35,228
Thank you.

957
01:12:18,138 --> 01:12:20,440
You have returned.

958
01:12:21,207 --> 01:12:25,779
It is time for log-Sotha.

959
01:12:26,312 --> 01:12:29,249
Only the bat can face him.

960
01:12:29,916 --> 01:12:34,587
You understand what that means now, yes?

961
01:12:34,988 --> 01:12:37,323
I do. At last.

962
01:12:37,457 --> 01:12:41,940
You are prepared for this sacrifice?

963
01:12:42,620 --> 01:12:43,763
I am.

964
01:12:44,130 --> 01:12:49,302
Then now, you are one of us.

965
01:12:50,170 --> 01:12:53,473
Just tell me where to find the thing.

966
01:12:54,740 --> 01:12:57,770
Where it began.

967
01:13:24,704 --> 01:13:25,772
Harvey...

968
01:13:31,678 --> 01:13:33,680
Poison Ivy, I'm told.

969
01:13:35,448 --> 01:13:37,350
Considering a second opinion.

970
01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:41,321
Bruce?

971
01:13:43,223 --> 01:13:44,290
You take care of yourself.

972
01:13:47,827 --> 01:13:49,195
You too, Harv.

973
01:13:51,898 --> 01:13:53,533
I'll see you soon.

974
01:14:52,125 --> 01:14:53,393
Forgive me, boys.

975
01:15:48,481 --> 01:15:49,816
Thank God.

976
01:15:50,583 --> 01:15:52,485
Kick their *** Bruce.

977
01:16:35,995 --> 01:16:37,397
log Sotha,

978
01:16:38,631 --> 01:16:41,301
I feel your power.

979
01:16:42,402 --> 01:16:44,700
Yes!

980
01:17:41,861 --> 01:17:45,298
I'd rather like to think
that under different circumstances,

981
01:17:45,598 --> 01:17:46,933
we'd be allies...

982
01:17:47,133 --> 01:17:48,968
Friends, perhaps.

983
01:18:03,283 --> 01:18:05,785
My friends have a bad habit of dying.

984
01:18:18,631 --> 01:18:20,333
It's just you and me now.

985
01:18:25,338 --> 01:18:26,439
You fool.

986
01:18:26,906 --> 01:18:27,974
This thing...

987
01:18:28,274 --> 01:18:32,746
This thing
is beyond your human comprehension.

988
01:18:42,188 --> 01:18:43,590
Behold.

989
01:18:46,493 --> 01:18:51,865
For even to gaze upon it
is to incur madness!

990
01:18:56,803 --> 01:18:58,171
I've seen it.

991
01:19:07,113 --> 01:19:08,782
Do you not see?

992
01:19:10,617 --> 01:19:12,652
The deed is done.

993
01:19:18,391 --> 01:19:20,260
I am him.

994
01:19:20,493 --> 01:19:22,629
Born of the nameless mist,

995
01:19:23,396 --> 01:19:26,660
progenitor of Yib Nogeroth,

996
01:19:26,332 --> 01:19:29,569
Hastur the unspeakable...

997
01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:36,643
And Cthulhu himself!

998
01:19:47,354 --> 01:19:48,555
Die!

999
01:19:49,890 --> 01:19:55,195
For soon all that lives shall
follow thee into Hell!

1000
01:20:03,536 --> 01:20:07,440
Humanity shall be wiped from the earth!

1001
01:20:09,376 --> 01:20:10,610
What is that?

1002
01:20:17,684 --> 01:20:18,918
To prevail in this,

1003
01:20:19,753 --> 01:20:24,257
Bruce Wayne must die
and through death become himself.

1004
01:20:24,357 --> 01:20:27,627
The bloodline can never escape
the stain of sin...

1005
01:20:29,896 --> 01:20:31,398
Why a bat?

1006
01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:36,803
The bats know the way to salvation.

1007
01:20:39,390 --> 01:20:41,441
You must embrace it.

1008
01:20:42,375 --> 01:20:46,746
Now!
You are now one of us.

1009
01:21:00,930 --> 01:21:01,661
You're still alive?

1010
01:21:04,964 --> 01:21:06,833
Not alive.

1011
01:21:07,300 --> 01:21:09,690
Not anymore.

1012
01:21:09,836 --> 01:21:11,571
What are you?

1013
01:21:11,971 --> 01:21:15,408
I am Batman!

1014
01:21:50,443 --> 01:21:51,878
Yes!

1015
01:23:20,800 --> 01:23:23,203
Etrigan...

1016
01:23:44,657 --> 01:23:47,894
Well done. The ledger is clear.

1017
01:23:48,561 --> 01:23:53,133
Now take your leave,
whilst I do my damage here.

1018
01:23:58,104 --> 01:24:00,607
You must seek out two spirits.

1019
01:24:00,774 --> 01:24:04,978
One wrapped in bats, the other in flames.

1020
01:24:09,983 --> 01:24:11,851
Bruce Wayne must die,

1021
01:24:12,585 --> 01:24:15,588
and through death, become himself.

1022
01:24:28,501 --> 01:24:30,537
Before it can be truly saved,

1023
01:24:31,337 --> 01:24:35,800
Gotham must be burned to the ground.

1024
01:25:18,385 --> 01:25:22,550
Though this disaster
struck only months ago,

1025
01:25:22,722 --> 01:25:26,159
the Bruce Wayne memorial foundation
has already begun to rebuild.

1026
01:25:28,128 --> 01:25:30,563
A better Gotham is in reach.

1027
01:25:31,464 --> 01:25:35,969
And we'd like to dedicate this effort
to two dear friends of Mr. Wayne,

1028
01:25:36,690 --> 01:25:37,504
and of Gotham itself.

1029
01:25:39,339 --> 01:25:42,609
The honorable Harvey Dent
and Mr. Oliver Queen.

1030
01:25:54,120 --> 01:25:54,954
And now,

1031
01:25:55,789 --> 01:25:57,424
the acting head of the foundation,

1032
01:25:58,792 --> 01:26:00,527
Ms. Kai Li Cain.

1033
01:26:06,499 --> 01:26:08,201
I've not been here long,

1034
01:26:08,601 --> 01:26:11,471
but thanks to Bruce, I've come
to think of Gotham as home.

1035
01:26:12,639 --> 01:26:14,441
In many ways, my first home.

1036
01:26:15,709 --> 01:26:18,511
Bruce Wayne had a vision of
what Gotham could be.

1037
01:26:19,179 --> 01:26:20,280
An ideal.

1038
01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:23,316
I promise to do
everything within my power,

1039
01:26:24,117 --> 01:26:25,652
and beyond my power,

1040
01:26:26,686 --> 01:26:29,155
to bring about the realization
of Bruce Wayne's dream

1041
01:26:29,222 --> 01:26:30,690
for a new Gotham City.

1042
01:26:31,825 --> 01:26:33,590
Speaking of Bruce,

1043
01:26:33,727 --> 01:26:35,895
for those of you who knew and loved him,

1044
01:26:36,663 --> 01:26:38,965
take comfort in this final thought.

1045
01:26:40,967 --> 01:26:43,136
He wasn't always the most forthcoming man,

1046
01:26:44,370 --> 01:26:46,473
but you could
always be sure of two things.

1047
01:26:47,707 --> 01:26:50,100
He would do anything
for those that he loved,

1048
01:26:50,677 --> 01:26:52,379
and he was stubborn as hell.

1049
01:26:53,980 --> 01:26:56,383
I know Bruce is watching over us.

1050
01:26:56,983 --> 01:26:58,852
And something tells me that if we,

1051
01:26:59,519 --> 01:27:02,889
the people and city that he held so dear,
ever needed him,

1052
01:27:04,591 --> 01:27:06,426
really needed him,

1053
01:27:07,994 --> 01:27:11,431
not even death itself could keep him away.
